Double check to make sure you are connected to it. They had that tower down yesterday and was working on it. My phone was connecting to the Vinita Park one and sometimes the one on Olive.

I assumed that with that signal level at less than 1000ft from the tower base it was a different site. I just couldn't type all of that while in traffic. I could barely post before the light turned green. Haha

The Meadowlark site north of troy had some activity today. I seen a couple trucks there and I believe panels are up. I will try to get pics, it's being my neighbors house.

Do you know how to check what tower you are connected to?

I know how to get to the engineering screen if that's what you mean. I just couldn't do it at the time.

 

Cool. Yea If you are in the area again just get the physical id and you can converted to HEX if you wanted to check the tower

anyone managed to find any 1x800 in the stl metro yet?

You probably won't as it has been disabled in most areas due to the channel shifting. The signal can still be seen on a spectrum analyzer if you have one.

I just got this at 370/70 along with Patmos and cave springs. I initially assumed it was Suemandy but unless I'm missing something on the map I don't see it

I stopped by I-64 & Frontenac site and there was a worker on the tower again. I spoke to a guy on the ground and he said they were working out some kinks in it. Not sure what that meant. He said it should be up fairly soon so maybe a week or two hopefully when it goes live.

Yea Mid Rivers and 370/70 aren't LTE active yet. You'll either get Bucheit, Jungermann, 70/79, or Cave Springs by the Mall. And then sometimes you'll have 3G even if you cycle even though those 4 sites cover that area.

Does anybody know how dangerous it is to be around live panels?

I may or may not have access to a rooftop site and I noticed there's a warning sticker about high levels of RF signal etc etc.

I'm not an expert but I'm sure brief exposure is fine. I mean, people do make a living climbing cell towers so day long. Extended exposure probably isn't good, but outside of having the antennas in your living room, it's hard to get that kind of exposure. A wall or two really dampens the signal a lot. You're more likely to get skin cancer from sun exposure.

No joy picking up LTE at Waynesville or Bourbon, MO during my drive today.  Maybe one of these days.

I think there might be a problem today. Went to Branson/Hollister for a live hit today and no LTE in Branson or on the drive there. And I normally have zero trouble picking up LTE. I'll be headed to St. Louis tomorrow so I'll see the I-44 corridor again.

I had LTE elsewhere on I44 so I don't know if it's wide spread but double checking won't hurt.

I was able to hit 370/70 today. I have screen shots of SCIDs 130 & 299

    • Kind of amazing that T-Mobile is still holding onto that speed title despite Verizon all but killing off lowband 5G on their network. While Verizon is mostly being evaluated on mmWave and C-band performance, T-Mobile and AT&T's average 5G speeds include their massive lowband 5G networks that are significantly slower.

    • Yup. Very true. We were originally on an Everything Data 1500 Plan, which got Unlimited Minutes thanks to Marcelo's "Loyalty Benefits" offer. We then switched to Unlimited Freedom (with the Free HD add-on that Sprint originally wanted $20/month per line for.... remember that?) because the pricing was better with "iPhone for Life", vs. the "Loyalty Credit" for staying on a Legacy Plan. After that, I ran the numbers and switched us over to Sprint MAX, especially for the international travel benefits. There's absolutely no reason for us to switch to Go5G Plus or Go5G Next if we're going to do BYOD by purchasing from Apple/Samsung/Google directly as we've been doing. These new plans aren't priced for current customers to switch to. They're priced for new customers, where they throw in a free line, etc. It's gone from "Uncarrier" to "Carrier". What a shame.
    • Strange business model that they keep around all these pricing plans. 1000s of plans per carrier is reportedly not uncommon.  Training customer support must be a nightmare. Even MVNOs have legacy plans. A downside of their contract mentality I guess. Best to change contracts during a recession. But then all carriers try to squeeze out legacy plan benefits as they grow old.  
    • Everything "Uncarrier" is becoming "Carrier" again. Because of the Credit Limit that T-Mobile put on our account for no reason at all (and wouldn't change/update the last time I checked all the way up to the CEO), I don't plan on buying/upgrading our iPhones through T-Mobile. I'm going through Apple directly. Looks like I'll be going through Google and Samsung directly for our other lines for upgrades. Also, we're staying on Sprint Max given the ridiculous pricing for Go5G Plus. On Sprint Max, we currently pay for our Plan: $260 for 7 Voice Lines $25 for two Wearable Lines. (One is $10/Month. The other is $15/Month because the AutoPay discount only applies up to 8 lines.) Total: $285/Month vs. Go5G Plus (Per the Broadband Facts "nutrition label" on the T-Mobile Website): https://www.t-mobile.com/commerce/cell-phone-plans $360 - ($5 AutoPay Discount x 7 Voice Lines) = $325 The Watch Plans show as either $12/Month or $15/Month: https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans/affordable-data-plans/smartwatches So this is about the same for the wearables as what we're paying now. Overall, it's quite more than we're paying now to switch plans. Ridiculous....
